[2025 Six Nations] Italy vs Wales - 08/02/25

[General Melchett]

Whoever is sat to the left of Howley looks like he's about to end it all

Assisted suicide.

 

[dullonien]

Finally Rowlands comes off!

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Lucky to be penalty only that,
He drops but the Welsh tackler was always completely upright

 

[Groundhog]

Italy should be chasing a BP here instead of pot shot attempts on goal

 

[Rinkadink]

Been quite unimpressed by Faletau all game then he goes and does that. On top of that he's kinda keeping Wales' best player (IMO) out, Wainwright.

I'm waiting until they focus on the box and it's empty.

 

[Bluemoon]

I know you could say Italy are just doing what they need to do, but they are looking really poor as well, they can't be happy with this given the team they have given its one of th best they've every had against a really poor Wales.

 

[dullonien]

Adams you bellend

 

[dirty harry]

I guarantee Wales won't look any better with Edwards at 10. The problem is Howley, Gats and our dhape in attack! To blame Thomas is ******

I agree Howley is a problem, but Thomas has been nothing other than bad for Cardiff let alone Wales.

When your playing bad, your luck gets bad too, as we did last week, the refs decisions have been against us again. This is the same thing as tier 2 nations getting the rough edge by refa

More high tackles than backwards passes

He's old and not fit..

That's never a high degree of danger though, we often see those completely let go in the prem.

 

[Groundhog]

Ooph yeah definitely meets the threshold

 

[AlRums]

Carley controlled that well.

 

[Reiser99]

I think yellow will be fair.

 

[AlRums]

Easy card could go red

 

[Jimbo]

I'm not sure how that can be anything but a red, if currys was in the WC that certainly is.

Don't disagree with you, but it's all on Gats for me. I refuse to blame a 10 playing out of position in a backline that doesn't have a clue what they're doing. It's a selection and coaching issue, plain and simple. Blaming Thomas is passing thr buck.

 

[Reiser99]

I know it's kicking Wales while their down, but they should be on a team warning for penalties now.

 

[General Melchett]

Italy more than two converted tries ahead now plus a man advantage. Time to kick for the corner next time they get the chance.
